Three Cheese and Truffle Stuffed Rolls

Preheat the oven to 200°C.

Filling: Place all the ingredients except the mascarpone in a bowl and beat until light and really well combined. Season and stir in the mascarpone.

Spoon the mixture into the piping bag. Do this in two batches if necessary.

Make a small hole in the base of each roll and pipe in a generous amount of filling.

Place the rolls hole side up in an ovenproof dish and bake for 8 minutes until golden or the recommended cooking time. Serve hot. Makes 8

Pantry note: Truffle oil is a way of adding the earthy flavour of truffles to a dish, without requiring actual (usually very expensive!) truffles. The oil comes in small bottles and is available from good food stores.
